Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United StatesThe shower made the entire bathroom floor wet and slippery. We felt bad using an extra towel each night to dry it so no one slipped if they got up to used the toilet during the night.
John was a fantastic host! He welcomed us in and gave great information about the local area. He also remembered what our plans were and asked about them each morning at breakfast. The breakfast selection was great and the fresh hot breads were delicious! The location was perfect, it was a short drive into downtown Killarney and a short drive or walk to stunning views in the Gap of Dunloe.

United StatesThe breakfast was only continental ~ wish there was a hot selection as well. TV was small and only had a few local stations (no remote) which was ok because I brought a good book. I didn’t care for the modern decor ~ it didn’t vibe with the traditional setting & furniture.
Loved the location ~ just a stone’s throw from Kate Kearney’s & Gap of Dunloe. Nice big room. The bedding was comfy - slept great. The hosts were very accommodating - provided a space heater because my room was cold.

CanadaIt's tough to get a taxi into town as we didn't know numbers or have a phone to call, but we had a car so it was okay.
The property is beautiful and rooms are big. It's a little outside the town, but walkable.to Kate Kearnys cottage and a perfect location to start the gap of Dunloe walk.

IrelandOlder bathroom while fully functional shower could do with an upgrade. Wouldn't make me not want to stay again.
Accommodation was clean and modern. The hosts were fabulous, so informative and knowledgeable about the local area. Stunning location. About a 5min drive to the gap of Dunloe, 10min walk to kate kearneys cottagr and 20min into Killarney, taxi roughly €20-25. The rooms were well kept, comfortable and we had the most beautiful view of the mountains. Lovely small continental buffet breakfast perfect start to the day.

BelgiumWe did expect a little more choice for breakfast, like a slice of charcuterie or a boiled egg, as alternative because there was no full egg-bacon-sausage breakfast. It was OK, but compared to the rest of the B&B, we thought the breakfast was the least taken care of.
Beautiful big room and bathroom, in a quiet location. Location was 15 min drive of Killarney, too far for a walk, but still easy to go to.

AustraliaOnly one tiny thing, the shower was not draining well so the bathroom flooded, however I wouldn’t mark you down on this, as these things happen and im sure you’ll get it fixed as soon as you can.
Everything about this B&B is wonderful. Host was friendly and helpful, breakfast lovely, room very very comfortable. Two pillows each, yay. A pub with music 600m away. Quiet location but close to everything. Highly recommend staying here.
